He updated his .plan file yesterday with words announcing his departure from id Software. If you had never heard his name until this news, he worked on DOOM 3 as an animator. Apparently, filmmaking was missing him much.
Here is the full transcript of his .plan:
[quote]Well.Well.
The time has come for me to leave id Software and head back to the movie industry.
I couldn't of asked for a better experience in coming to the game industry.
I mean.... I got to work on Doom3..... !!!
The guys at id are super talented, and i'll absolutely miss being around every one of them.
Thanks Ms. Donna for always being in a good mood and keeping us all in check... and full of food.. =)
I learned a ton about the game industry and making games, and I am very gratefull for the opportunity to come out here and work with these guys..
I'll definately still be playing the games, and most likely hanging on IRC still. So don't be a stranger....
Anyone up for a game of q3tourney6_ctf?
Oh.. and don't think I won't be coming to Quakecon..
It was a very difficult decision, but in the end it just came down to me missing
working on film.
I'm heading to Dreamworks in LA.
The first movie I'll be working on is called "Over the Hedge"
Take care..
